00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:23.200

8
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:38.959
responsible for a violation of the relevant section of the code as charged. All documentary evidence presented by parties the parties must be submitted for placement in the hearing file. No documentary evidence will be considered unless the alleged violator or code

21
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:38.240
of about close to 150 to 200 people inside the home. Uh I was told by somebody in the party that they were celebrating the high school graduation. So there was about three to four different schools inside the house. Uh

22
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:55.519
we observed underage drinking. We observed marijuana. Uh we observed cars parked in the median. Um, we had to call other agencies to help us uh just to keep the safety of the kids because everybody dispersed when they saw us and

23
00:14:55.519 --> 00:15:11.440
they called uh Ubers, they called taxis. So there was kids everywhere and to keep control and to keep uh the safety of the children uh we uh asked for assistance from other departments nearby. Uh they

24
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:28.240
did disperse. They did uh listen to us the first time. Um, and we thank them for that. Um, but we were never able to get the renters's information because nobody wanted to say that they rented. So that's why the uh incident report is

25
00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:45.519
incomplete as far as that information >> from the board. >> Yeah, I got a couple. Um, so I'm looking at your report. You have your report in front of you? >> Yes. >> And is this uh is this the narrative I'm looking at? That's the same narrative. >> Yes. Okay. Because you just said that

41
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:27.039
>> enter onto the record. Police report number BP26053000000347. >> Was that And that was the first time the first one or is it that? Oh, you're just in introducing. Okay. And when you said that there was a prior one, was that the one where the guy said he had some kind of noise monitor or something? Okay. But

42
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:45.919
Okay. >> The owner and back. >> Yes. Right. And that's how we that's who we learned from. >> You've got the the document >> document. >> Yeah. >> Documents from the first one. And if I

43
00:20:45.919 --> 00:21:03.120
remember correctly, at the at the first at the at the first offense, the owner said that he had some kind of a noise meter, but it never but he never uh engaged it or never did anything about it. He just came and, you know, said, "I got a noise meter." But, you know, it's like, "Why didn't you engage it or do

44
00:21:03.120 --> 00:21:22.720
anything?" >> The first one was the one where we had quite a number of neighbors. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Remembering that. Thank you. Yeah. I mean, but before that, I just want to say that what I'm compelled by first of all is that the officer is here

45
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:39.760
and that he's providing a uh uh his own testimony about what he heard, what he observed, and what he saw. Um I would suggest, you know, and and that's very uh you know, very good and and that's what I'm basing my opinion on or or my ruling on. In the future, I would

46
00:21:39.760 --> 00:21:55.039
suggest and I you kind of do some of this for a living. So, I would just suggest that, you know, the more that you're right, the better that it is, you know, just for for the future. Um, but I am compelled by the the prior uh you know, the the prior offense and with

47
00:21:55.039 --> 00:22:12.480
multiple neighbors and the owner was here and I find that today he is not here. Um, and he received notice of this hearing today. Right. >> Did receive he was noticed properly noticed. So, >> okay. >> And was property was posted. >> I have no further questions.

48
00:22:12.480 --> 00:22:29.760
No further questions. I'd like to make a motion on case number C-26-0255 that a violation has occurred specifying of $2,000 plus administrative costs of $500.

49
00:22:29.760 --> 00:22:47.760
Pay by July 31st, 2026 or direct the village to proceed lean. In addition, direct the village to uh suspend or cancel the um short-term rental license. >> I'll second

50
00:22:47.760 --> 00:23:07.360
>> I just like one clarification if you don't mind. The suspension is that effective immediately. >> The suspension is um is effective today because now we have adjudication that we can move.

51
00:23:07.360 --> 00:23:32.960
>> Okay. Well, I directed the village to suspend it as of today. >> 30 days. >> 30 days. >> I'll second. >> All in favor? >> I motion passes 4. So, we wanted to put it on the record

52
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:47.840
that they have to pull all their advertisements from the platforms ABNB, VR, VBR or whatever they call it. Wherever they advertising, they can't advertise anymore when they on under suspension. when they're under a

53
00:23:47.840 --> 00:24:04.159
suspension order. What we've seen in the past is they continue advertising and sometimes they continue renting the places, but wanted to make it clear that they cannot rent the place and they cannot advertise. >> Are are they going to get that information when you give them the fines and everything?

54
00:24:04.159 --> 00:24:20.480
>> Yes. >> Okay. And the gentlemen over here, I'm sure since they're listening, are going to tell the owner, you know, that you got to pull all the advertising. We will have that in writing because my concern always is lost in the translation,

55
00:24:20.480 --> 00:24:41.559
>> right? >> We'll have that in writing in all the specifics. >> Yes, we include that on the wall. >> I believe >> it's for sale also. Yes.

56
00:24:56.480 --> 00:25:40.480
>> Sign is for rent. Yeah, you're right. advertising down. Next case is no business in section 7 and it's 7.2. It's for the address 1016 Northeast 114th Street. This for case number

57
00:25:40.480 --> 00:26:00.960
C26-0275. The owner is 106 Northeast 114th Street LLC in care of their registered agent. Northwest Registered agent LLC. We are asking for an order of enforcement second offense $2,000 penalty. They've

58
00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:16.159
been found to be in violation of section 19.1.10 10 for allowed party at a short-term rental location. And onto the record, I'll enter police report number BP26061

59
00:26:16.159 --> 00:26:35.360
600394. We have the police officer here as a witness. And we have neighbors to give testimony. What >> the property owner here for 1016 representative. Okay. Have a

60
00:26:35.360 --> 00:26:51.919
representative. >> I do have one question. I see we have a police report, an incident report from back in March, but we never had that. >> Um I believe the March report, um we issued a courtesy, it was a warning. We

61
00:26:51.919 --> 00:27:08.080
issued a courtesy notice. We didn't issue them. And the reason we did that was because there wasn't any loud music. It was loud talking. So I gave them the doubt and just warned them. Perfect. >> So, when you say second offense, was there ever an ad adjudicated case before the ones that are in our packet right

62
00:27:08.080 --> 00:27:23.919
now? >> Yes, there was a first offense with $1,000 that was adjudicated here. >> And when was that? >> Was that back in >> November? Yeah. November 25. Okay. So, we should probably hear from the

63
00:27:23.919 --> 00:27:44.960
police officer first and then the neighbors. Okay. Hello. Hello. How are you? Officer M. Officer Michael J. Marchesy, Village of Biscane Park Police Department. I responded to this location

64
00:27:44.960 --> 00:28:02.720
of 1012 Northeast 114th Street pertaining to a loud music or party going on at that residence. It's a known short-term rental. We've been there before.

65
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:18.720
On my arrival, which was on the Tuesday the 16th, uh I did not hear any noise. I got to the front of the residence. I didn't hear any noise. I didn't hear any music at the first response. I went to the front door, one of the sides of the

66
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:33.679
house. Normally, I listen over that fence because the pools is where the action usually happens in these homes. I heard nothing, but I did see an enormous amount of cars around the vehic around the house and

67
00:28:33.679 --> 00:28:50.559
down Northeast 10th Avenue, some of which were illegally parked. I knocked on the front door. I met a Miss Clark. Miss Clark says she was renting the place through Airbnb and she said that it was for her daughter's 18th birthday. Her daughter

68
00:28:50.559 --> 00:29:08.000
also came out. I believe her name was Jada. Uh, I instructed them come to the front of the house and I explained to them that these vehicles have to move immediately and every one of them had to get out of there and they did immediately. I said I heard no noise and I heard no

69
00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:25.520
music at that point in time but obviously somebody in the area has complained and there must have been noise prior to my arrival. Uh, my reports of course are full of integrity and I did not hear any noise.

70
00:29:25.520 --> 00:29:42.559
So, but I told her if I return and do hear noise, any noise that's disturbing the tranquility of this neighborhood, they will be cited. Someone will be cited. They both understood. The mother said she understood. She said, "For the most

71
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:58.399
part, the party is over." And I did see approximately 30 children, 30 young people leave the party. It was a birthday party for her 18-year-old daughter. They left in private vehicles as well as a lot of Ubers. We get a lot

72
00:29:58.399 --> 00:30:13.279
of Ubers that drop these young people off. They left and as it dispersed, it was quiet. It was quiet on my arrival and quiet on my departure. Approximately

73
00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:30.000
an hour or so passed by. I responded again to that location. It was at 113 a.m. Since it went past midnight, it was on Wednesday the 17th. On my arrival there, I heard loud talking, yelling,

74
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:45.679
and screaming in the backyard. Uh, absolutely over 150, 200 feet from the residence and the poolside area. I stood in the uh in the the roadway like I always do and it was extremely

75
00:30:45.679 --> 00:31:00.080
loud. People were yelling, people were screaming and uh and laughing and you could hear it all very well, which was a disturbance to this neighborhood at this time. I walked to the front driveway, heard the same thing, went to the pool

76
00:31:00.080 --> 00:31:17.919
side, uh which would be the uh west side of that house, the the northwest side of that house. and I listened over the fence and I heard the yelling continuing. I knocked on the door and I asked for the mother that I

77
00:31:17.919 --> 00:31:34.240
told that I would write the citation to or her daughter to respond outside. The daughter came outside, the birthday girl and it was her 18th birthday and I told her, "Listen, I told you if I come back this party's over. I told you originally

78
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:49.360
that we're not going to tolerate that in this neighborhood. no violations and obviously the first time somebody must have called for a reason and I understand the reason now. So I cited her. I gave her a civil citation on her

79
00:31:49.360 --> 00:32:05.919
birthday cuz her mother wasn't there. She said her mother wasn't there. Although the mother's car was there, she said the mother wasn't there. And the mother did say she had leased this through Airbnb. Once again, that's not

80
00:32:05.919 --> 00:32:21.279
supported by any documentation. >> You mean that this Airbnb was not there's no Airbnb document that you saw? >> No, none whatsoever. >> Dorine, is it a registered as an Airbnb? >> Okay. >> The daughter received a citation, civil

81
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:37.440
citation, and I said, "This party's over." Party was over. Everybody left. Everyone left except two of her friends. and that was going to be maintained on the inside of that uh the dwelling. Like most of the homes here, when they're

82
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:53.919
inside, there's no real problem. It's on the outside pool side that they echo all across to the neighbors, which are zero lot lines in some cases. And uh and I can understand it. So they all left. They left in a early fashion. Uh this

83
00:32:53.919 --> 00:33:10.960
woman was pleasant to me, but she did receive a citation on her birthday. And uh all the cars uh left the area. There were no illegal cars, illegally parked cars and there was no noise whatsoever when I left.

84
00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:26.000
And uh that that was the end of the party. That was my entire involvement at that time. >> Well, as a matter of a technical point, the fact that she was 18 at the age of majority, she could receive that citation now, couldn't she? >> Sure. >> The fact that she was 18 in the age of majority, she could receive that citation now.

85
00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:42.240
>> Absolutely. It's her birthday. Well, Officer Marquez, I got to say that um your your testimony is compelling uh almost as compelling as you your very uh detailed narrative. I think you might want to talk to Officer Larosa about

86
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:58.559
about that because it it gave me a picture of uh you know of of how you approach this and the uh the manner in which you made your determination. Um, and the fact that you just received

87
00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:16.240
a a call and went out there, but it you could not uh confirm what the call uh had complained about. It looks like you um you did about everything that we would want a village of Biscane Park officer doing in order to um to take

88
00:34:16.240 --> 00:34:33.359
control of the situation. And it sounds like you gave the birthday girl and her mother uh you know uh fair warning. Um and it seems like that at at 113, you know, shortly after you left, you responded to another call, but this time

89
00:34:33.359 --> 00:34:49.040
from an anonymous caller, correct? And when you went there, you uh confirmed with your own ears and your own investigation uh what the anonymous caller was reporting at 113. Correct. >> That's correct.

90
00:34:49.040 --> 00:35:05.760
>> And that was different than what you had uh confirmed with your own ears and your own investigation from the the first call. Correct. >> That's correct. >> And the first call because you couldn't confirm it, you didn't issue a citation, but you issued a warning. The second call, you did get a you did confirm what

91
00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:20.800
you were reported and that formed the basis for your issuing this ticket. Correct. >> That's correct. >> Okay. I mean, that's all I got. I >> think you did everything possible in the fair and right and respectful way.

92
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:37.160
>> It's unfortunate they didn't learn from the first trip. Now um Darin, I also see that there's a letter, uh, dated July 7th that's also part of this. Is that somebody that's going to testify?

93
00:35:38.560 --> 00:35:54.320
>> Um, neighbor. >> Okay. But before they testify, I als I I do want some clarity on this. There's another report of March 22nd, 26. Is that is that uh it was officer

94
00:35:54.320 --> 00:36:10.000
Right. But Officer Yrosa was the one who uh dealt with that call. >> Yes. And that was a warning. We didn't have him come over to testify because even though we've added this into the evidence and we've added other pieces of

95
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:28.400
information from other incidents and um police log calls, we wanted this to be the case that you indicated for the second offense. >> Understand? Well, Officer Yos is here, correct? Is that the gentleman in the back?

96
00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:47.200
Do you do you remember this call? >> Okay. >> I mean, if you want me to consider I'm not going to consider this because this would be hearsay. If he wants to talk about it, I mean, I think we got enough to proceed with officer Marches >> asked him

97
00:36:47.200 --> 00:37:02.960
from four months ago. We have >> No, that's fine. I but I'm just I just want to point out that that it is part of the record, but it's not part of the record that I'm going to consider because it's hearsay. But but I'm compelled by what I've heard from officer Marquesy in his diligent efforts.

98
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:21.599
>> We have neighbors >> and we all got neighbors. Yes. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. Am I excused? >> Yes. Thank you so much for coming. I appreciate >> Have a nice day. >> Oh yeah. in case the property owner would like to

99
00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:38.079
ask questions. >> Thank you. Right. >> And the property owner, you do have the the opportunity, and this is a quasi judicial process. So, if you want to cross-examine the officer and challenge what his recollections are, >> I'd like to hear >> and which is at the appropriate time,

100
00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:54.320
you will have that opportunity. And what you know, the the this the village has the burden. So, they're putting on the evidence now and then you'll have an opportunity to do whatever you want with the witnesses. folks who were planning to testify in this case to witness.

101
00:37:54.320 --> 00:38:16.320
>> Did you want to speak >> propsy? Um the management company you can neighbor >> so you can go first and then the neighbors. your name and your

102
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:32.880
>> Jessella and I am the property manager of the of the property. >> Oh, okay. Before you start, you need to be swearing. >> Sorry. >> But she came in after >> sworn in. >> Raise your right hand. Do you swear that the testimony about to give will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but

103
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:47.839
the truth? >> I swear. >> Okay. So uh I would like to go back a bit to the first offense that we had then on the second one and the actions that we have taken and also who who are the neighbors I'm sorry so I can see you

104
00:38:47.839 --> 00:39:05.440
okay uh and I mean I I live in a house myself too and obviously >> and you know >> sorry and um and in any way we have tried to be disrespectful neither to the people that we rent or anything like that we actually manage other houses

105
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:21.440
here in Biscane park and uh really this has been the only house problematic for us that had brought us the most um challenges in this sense I don't know because of the size um on the very first offense we added noise like a noise it's

106
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:37.359
called noise aware it's a noise monitor inside the home uh yet as you can see in this second offense it seems that the noise is coming from the outside so it wasn't captured by our systems the systems that we had put uh because well obviously like if it's on the pool, it's

107
00:39:37.359 --> 00:39:54.320
not going to be heard by the monitor inside or not as loud as it should. Uh since we've gotten this um well, we took the listing down number one, but then then also we installed an additional monitor that will now capture the sound on the exterior of the property. And we

108
00:39:54.320 --> 00:40:10.400
have added cameras as well pointing at the at the back too, so we can control the number of people that are there. Uh and also when we see that something might happen in this case for example that you know there were a ton of cars in the driveway according to to the

109
00:40:10.400 --> 00:40:25.680
police and and maybe more capacity uh than what the people that was booking there uh originally we can catch it before it escalates. So that's what we have done right now uh moving forward

110
00:40:25.680 --> 00:40:43.440
and uh just want to transmit that our idea is not this like you're free to get my phone number I'm typically available 247 if not Johar from my team is also as well uh our idea is not that it escalates to that now we have the measure so it doesn't uh but we're also

111
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:59.200
super reachable 247 the least that we want is that you are inconvenienced in in any way uh so Well, with that statement, uh, I don't know if you guys have other questions. >> I've got a couple questions. Sure. So, so firstly, let me just understand the sound monitor. You said you have it in

112
00:40:59.200 --> 00:41:15.760
the house because you have had a prior uh uh violation >> the November one. Yeah, the 2025. I I cannot remember than the actual month. >> And did you testify in that in that proceeding? >> Joe Hurricane. Uh, yeah, exactly. My my >> and and and this is a sound monitor

113
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:31.760
guide, right? This is one. This is a sound monitor one, two. This did you have the sound monitor there in November? >> We had the sound Yeah, we had the sound monitor but inside. >> Okay. >> Uh we now got an exterior one as well because >> Well, let me ask you a question. I I

114
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:47.520
understand that. I heard the testimony, but uh wasn't the was the first violation have to deal with uh noise on the outside? >> Uh I am not completely sure. I don't think so. No. >> Okay. What happens if the sound monitor goes on and uh and what does it do? Like do you get an alert on your phone or

115
00:41:47.520 --> 00:42:02.560
something? Yeah, I can show you. >> No, I don't need to see it. >> Yeah, I have it. We have it on our phones, not only him and I. >> What would you do? >> Well, you get a notification when there has been sound. We have alarms and uh right now we have it above 70. >> What do you do? Do you get in your car

116
00:42:02.560 --> 00:42:18.560
and you go over there? What do you do? >> We live here 20 minutes away. So, number one, we would call the guest before actually coming here and say, "Hey, this is going on. Uh, you know, you either stop it or not." And we can see in real time if they've stopped it or not, basically. Okay. Now, on the night of

117
00:42:18.560 --> 00:42:35.359
this incident, you were not there, correct? >> I wasn't there. No. Okay. >> So, there's nothing that you can really say that would challenge officer Marquees warrant testimony. >> Nothing. >> Okay. So, you So, you don't challenge the fact that there were par cars illegally parked in the in there. >> Exactly. I have no evidence on my end.

118
00:42:35.359 --> 00:42:52.079
Uh just because we don't have we didn't have the cameras or the outdoor outdoor noise monitor. Uh I understand that he had to come a second time because in the first one he couldn't hear, but outside from that, no. And further, you were you don't have anything to challenge Mr. Marqueesy's testimony about when he got

119
00:42:52.079 --> 00:43:09.119
the anonymous phone call at 1:13 in the morning and went there and and uh determined for himself the amount of noise that was going on in the efforts that he did as a result of >> that's correct because the noise monitor uh was inside and that was quiet.

120
00:43:09.119 --> 00:43:24.560
>> Okay. Okay. >> So, I'm not here really to challenge you. more to explain to you guys what we have done uh to the neighbors out of you know respect and we want to be good neighbors number one and then lastly if there is any sort of like amnesty on the

121
00:43:24.560 --> 00:43:41.680
amount of the of the um fine what's the process for that >> we're going to get to that but but I just you know officer Mark please >> to challenge >> okay so he's these guys are on the clock so I guess we can let them go >> enjoy their evening >> thank you

122
00:43:41.680 --> 00:44:00.400
>> appreciate it >> appreciate it officers have neighbors who would like to give witness. >> Sure. Go ahead, sir. >> Hi. >> Good evening. >> George, um, can you swear me in or No.

123
00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:15.839
>> Were you here when they swore everybody in? >> I was here. >> So, you're good. >> Okay. >> Well, let me ask you a question. Where do you live in relation to this house? Like right next door? A couple right next door? >> Yeah. >> East side of the road, opposite side of the road. >> No, I'm on the I I border on the west side of uh of this property.

124
00:44:15.839 --> 00:44:30.800
>> So, you guys share a property line? >> You share a property line. Okay. Yeah. So, I have access to I can see or hear the the yard and whatnot. >> So, um I have nothing against Airbnb in particular. My my main concern and and I can potentially propose a solution is

125
00:44:30.800 --> 00:44:46.480
this. This is a two-bedroom house and it markets itself up to for 14 people. >> So, imagine who you're trying to attract. That's what's happening. This is why this house is repeatedly an offense. If you put it to five, six,

126
00:44:46.480 --> 00:45:03.040
seven people, it's going to be normal people. This calling for seven people uh for 14 people, seven beds. I mean, I have a the listing is down, but um I should have taken a picture, but it says seven beds, two private baths. Um, for

127
00:45:03.040 --> 00:45:19.599
the most part it's fine, but every so often we get these crazy incidents and we have door slams and loud music and screaming and yelling and there's a nice pool in the back. So, there's jumping around and there's police calls. It's not a good look. Um, it's just it's not great. I I don't want to uh I I wish if

128
00:45:19.599 --> 00:45:35.359
it were my if I can get my wishes, it would be for them to modify the listing. Not necessarily saying close them down. And I would just say uh bring it down to a normal capacity adequate to that house and then maybe things can flow as their other properties do. Uh that's just my concern and I'm right next to them.

129
00:45:35.359 --> 00:45:51.200
>> Let me ask you some specific questions about the night of June 16th going into the June 17th. You heard Officer Mares Casey's testimony? >> I did. >> Okay. And with respect to the the what what he testified to about the the the loud uh party and the and the loud

130
00:45:51.200 --> 00:46:06.160
voices, the yelling, the laughter and and around the pool. Did you experience that yourself that evening? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Okay. I did it. >> And were you did you get awakened? Were you already awake? You know, >> no, I was awake. >> Okay. >> I was awake. >> And and and how would you describe

131
00:46:06.160 --> 00:46:23.280
uh you know the noise? Was it a dull roar? Was it you know was it offensive? like you was it extremely loud, all the above. >> Yeah, I can tell like just with doors shut, I can hear a party. That's fine. Doesn't bother me. The doors are constantly open. They're left open and music's just blasting out. Uh the way

132
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:38.880
that house is situated, it just carries over to to my yard. Um Yes. Yes. I read a little message. >> That's your email. >> Yeah. >> You're George Fermentoto. >> Yes. >> Okay.

133
00:46:38.880 --> 00:46:55.520
Yeah. And you and you say here that uh I mean as you testified to here under oath that excessive noise uh constantly entering and exiting the doors were slammed a lot of yelling not an isolated incident. >> All true?

134
00:46:55.520 --> 00:47:11.440
>> Yes. >> Okay. >> Certainly. >> How long have you lived at your property? >> No, I'm actually I build the house. Uh so it's just been this year. We finished it a couple of uh maybe like three, four months ago or three months. Uh so um my experience is is limited in the sense

135
00:47:11.440 --> 00:47:27.599
that I I when I when I was there during the construction process I would see and now that I spend more time at the property uh I am experiencing the effects of the night and I was there I happened to be there that night for the incident. >> I mean I guess you're it may be limited experience but it's consistent in terms

136
00:47:27.599 --> 00:47:43.920
of what you're experiencing. >> Yeah. Yeah. It happens pretty often and then you'll see a note there that marijuana litter creeps into the yard and >> not exactly welcome. >> It's not great. It's not great. Not ideal. Yeah. >> Okay.

137
00:47:43.920 --> 00:48:05.200
>> Anybody else want to speak? Yep. We got some more. >> Come on up. >> Thank you. >> Thank you, sir. >> Thank you, sir. >> Hi. Um, Charlene Cor7 Northeast 114th Street. I live across the street and I am the one who calls

138
00:48:05.200 --> 00:48:22.000
all the time with the police. I sometimes give my name, sometimes I don't. I have 12 documented phone calls on my phone right now from the last two years. Sometimes it's multiple times early morning I get woken up. I sleep in a back bedroom on the north side of the

139
00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:38.640
street. There has been um multiple parties where I don't know how many people they rent to initially but it ends up being cars up and down our street in our swale on 10th Avenue just every which way and

140
00:48:38.640 --> 00:48:55.680
then the door slamming starts the cars the yelling and screaming the loud noise and then the garbage they throw stuff in the garbage can and it's it echoes. Um, we've had parties where people show up and I would consider them escorts

141
00:48:55.680 --> 00:49:12.000
because they're scantly dressed and they have their little suitcases. >> We have to ask you in this case because here >> I I called because it woke me up. >> Stick to that night. >> Okay. Yeah, it woke me up. >> So, you were the one that called at 113? >> Yes.

142
00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:28.400
>> Okay. You are not Charlene. >> I'm Charlene. >> You're Charlene. >> I'm Charlene. Yes. So you called earlier and then you and you heard uh officer Marqueesy's testimony. >> Yes. >> And was that consistent with your recollection? >> Yes. >> Okay. And uh and he did speak to you that night when he first went over there and said he gave him a warning. He

143
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:43.119
didn't hear anything. He can't do anything. >> Right. >> You understood that? >> Yes. >> But then when you called again, >> it was put me up again. So yeah. >> Okay. All right. >> Very good. Well, thank you very >> if one of you lived next door to what

144
00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:59.359
we've been through on our block, this wouldn't be happening. >> And how long have you lived in Biscane Park? >> I've lived in Biscane Park for 60 something years. >> Okay. Welcome to the neighborhood. >> Yes. I mean, I have nothing against the Airbnb. We had a lovely couple there

145
00:49:59.359 --> 00:50:15.040
from Germany. They were wonderful. We didn't want them to leave. They were quiet. They were respectful. They became part of the community. They were like, "Oh, we'll help you look for your missing cat." They were so lovely. It's hit or miss, but what's happening is like what George said, they're renting to a certain amount of people and then

146
00:50:15.040 --> 00:50:30.400
all of a sudden it's put on social media and you've got a party going on and >> and you and you know, aside from this and and we're only here to talk about this, but but you have at least called a dozen times. >> Oh, yeah. And I mean, there's probably

147
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:48.800
times I've flipped it off my phone or um for some reason I didn't document it, but yeah. And the police the the police I'm like have them on speed dial and they tell me to call when this happens because they don't want this. It's we're used to quiet, you know, and we've had

148
00:50:48.800 --> 00:51:05.119
deaths on our block. We just had someone die of cancer. We have someone else with stage four cancer. I take care of a mother with Alzheimer's. I need my quiet. I need my sleep. And I know they're running a business, but there's got to be a better way to do it. >> Well, as an owner, you have a right of

149
00:51:05.119 --> 00:51:22.480
quiet enjoyment. >> Yeah. Thank you. >> Well, thank you for your time. Thank you. >> Anybody else? >> Anyone else on that? >> We got one more. >> How are you? >> How you doing? >> Uh my name is Carmel Opir. I reside at

150
00:51:22.480 --> 00:51:39.680
1035 Northeast 114th about three or four houses down from this particular house. Between George and Charlene, they pretty much covered it. Um, and I'm usually the last person to ever stand in a podium, complain, or

151
00:51:39.680 --> 00:51:55.520
make a call. This particular incident though changed. >> And when you say this particular incident, you're talking about the one on June 16th going into the 17th. Okay. So, you have a personal recollection of that. >> Oh, absolutely. Okay. And go on. >> You know, in general, to Charlene's

152
00:51:55.520 --> 00:52:11.599
point, many, many, many incense. You kind of just let it pass by. Um I think the key word that I heard earlier was neighbors. Um you want to be a good neighbor and that's fair enough and very welcome. The issue is that

153
00:52:11.599 --> 00:52:27.680
there are people that reside in the neighborhood uh 20 30 40 60 years. In this particular case on Tuesday um I had went to visit um a neighbor. I I'll leave them nameless if that's

154
00:52:27.680 --> 00:52:44.000
possible. We have a neighbor that she lost her husband uh the day before, two days before and a couple of neighbors came over to help her out, bring groceries and so on. I came by about 9 9:30 and while we were there and it was

155
00:52:44.000 --> 00:53:00.160
kind of somber, the music started to escalate. The noise started to rise and although the people that were there, yeah, it was birthday now I find out and it was celebratory. Great. The issue is, again, this is where it's a little

156
00:53:00.160 --> 00:53:16.880
shaky, is I'm dealing with someone who's grieving and there's a party two houses over and it's getting louder and louder and louder. Um, fortunately, she has uh high impact glass windows, so it was a little bit quiet when the windows were closed. When I was leaving at

157
00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:33.520
approximately 10, 10:30 and I was walking to my house, I had a feeling something was going to, you know, uh, it just wasn't going to bode well. As the hours passed and I was taking my dogs out for a late night walk, this is where I think the call started to come in,

158
00:53:33.520 --> 00:53:50.079
complaints, and I honestly didn't know what to do. Um, I was conflicted because I don't like being that guy. I think that, you know, you want to run a business, that's great. If it's all above board and it's legal and everybody is abiding, great. But then there's these these situations that you don't

159
00:53:50.079 --> 00:54:05.280
really know what to do. The following morning after I thought about it, I had come down to the police station and um where's that office? Yeah. And uh I just said, "Look, I I don't necessarily know if I want to file

160
00:54:05.280 --> 00:54:22.240
a formal complaint, but I need everybody to be aware of what's going on primarily because this is an ongoing issue." >> Let me just interrupt you there. So, you went to the police station the day after the event that was cited that's before us today. >> Yes. And and I was told because I didn't

161
00:54:22.240 --> 00:54:38.079
call at the time of the incident, they couldn't accept. So, well, that's a little weird, but okay, fine. It is what it is. But I I found the conversation and the dialogue actually very helpful and um everybody seems to be understanding that there's not a super

162
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:53.680
villain here. What there is is a situation that is progressing towards the wrong direction. And I need to say that aside from noise, there's an issue. We don't have sidewalks at Biscane Park. It's walking down the street. There is

163
00:54:53.680 --> 00:55:07.680
increased uh traffic. There's increased speeding. Safety is an issue. Parents are walking their kids in carriages. I'm walking and various people are walking their pets.

164
00:55:07.680 --> 00:55:24.160
There's a lack of respect, I would say, by those that don't live here that are participating in a short-term stay. Come to Miami. It's great. Let's have a party and so on. And believe me, I come from that world. I respect it. It's great. We're a great town. But neighborhoods

165
00:55:24.160 --> 00:55:39.599
are just that. They're neighborhoods and they're meant to be a sanctuary for those who live there. And this is a very unique gem of a neighborhood. It's a beautiful pocket. It should be preserved. It should be conserved for the people who live here and those that

166
00:55:39.599 --> 00:55:55.599
do move here and invest, not feel that they're making a mistake because now it's becoming a rotational short-term transient situation, which in and of itself breeds lack of safety. It breeds strangers coming in for short term not

167
00:55:55.599 --> 00:56:12.160
caring about the area. To Charlene's point about litter, I'll add to that when I walk the dogs now they're seeing the, you know, smelling the food. There's incidents of like chicken bones on the on the lawn. There's increased rodent activity. Uh it's just it's just

168
00:56:12.160 --> 00:56:27.440
a scenario in which there has to be a level of increased enforcement. I actually like the idea of that monitor situation, but that doesn't control traffic. It doesn't control the people that are renting and then calling and saying, "Hey, there's a party going on.

169
00:56:27.440 --> 00:56:43.040
This place is amazing." And then you have 20 people coming in and then that's where they're parking in the medians and swailes and so on and so forth. And I don't have an answer of how that can be controlled or enforced. But the idea now and I'm hearing also that there are more

170
00:56:43.040 --> 00:57:00.079
houses applying for Airbnb businesses or we'll say short-term rental businesses licenses and I would encourage another look at that. It's just something that will absolutely affect the um the fabric of the neighborhood. So if you have any

171
00:57:00.079 --> 00:57:16.319
other questions about that particular night >> piece of information unfortunately >> local municipalities hands to a large degree are completely tied. It seems like almost every year the legislature

172
00:57:16.319 --> 00:57:32.720
sends down new regulations that force local municipalities to actually loosen what they were able to do a few years ago. So we're not autonomous in being able to deal with it. So some of

173
00:57:32.720 --> 00:57:49.920
what you see is not the fault of local officials or of the police. It's what the edicts come from Tallahassee. >> I'm I sensed that that was the case. The issue is though if it's just if we just go back to the basics disruption of

174
00:57:49.920 --> 00:58:07.520
peace noise violations and my main concern aside from all that is the safety of those walking. There's not a lot of street lights in the area. People walking their dogs >> something we can deal with. >> Yeah. You throw a little uh alcohol in

175
00:58:07.520 --> 00:58:24.799
the mix, it gets really loud and then it gets a little >> No other questions. >> Yeah. Well, before you do, I just want to make a comment that, you know, because I want to address because there's there's testimony here. I wouldn't say that it necessarily conflicts, but it certainly

176
00:58:24.799 --> 00:58:42.319
does uh paint the picture of um we had officer Marches uh and three witnesses who all provided sworn testimony about what happened on the night of June 16th going into June 17th. And it's all consistent with respect to uh you know

177
00:58:42.319 --> 00:58:58.079
what they heard, what they observed. You know, in one case it interrupted somebody's sleep. In another case, it interrupted somebody's morning on that road. In another case, it interrupted somebody a new neighbor who had the who had just moved in. Um we did hear testimony from the building man, you

178
00:58:58.079 --> 00:59:13.440
know, from the property manager that uh that they installed these monitors. However, this is a second offense. And what really compelled me uh because you know I did hear the George's you know in and and this neighbor's suggestion that

179
00:59:13.440 --> 00:59:28.640
maybe we do something with regard to you know uh the noise monitor and and regulating. But the problem that I have with that is that this is a second violation. And what and and back in November of 2025, there was a violation.

180
00:59:28.640 --> 00:59:46.240
And the what what overwhelms me is that this is and we learned from the testimony tonight that this is a two-bedroom house. And you're advertising that you can sleep up to 14 people. And the excuse that there wasn't a noise monitor outside and we'll get

181
00:59:46.240 --> 01:00:03.280
one doesn't rise to the level of responsibility because there's reasonably foreseeable that if you're advertising that 14 people can cram into that two-bedroom house that there are going to be people that are out by the I believe it was a quote a nice pool outside that uh that that there people

182
01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:22.480
are going to be congregating there. So I don't find that information persuasive at all or the suggestion um you know enough. So I just wanted to put that on the record >> I mean on this case this particular one

183
01:00:22.480 --> 01:00:39.440
you're asking for the $2,000 >> penalty and the >> the suspension for 30 days for this case >> to make sure. So, it's not a permanent. It's 30 days. >> For this particular case, we're asking um 30-day suspension and then we are asking for more penalties after. But

184
01:00:39.440 --> 01:01:01.040
I'll let you roll on this. >> Okay. To clear that up before number- violation has occurred fine of $2,000. Administrative cost of $500. licenses to be suspended for the

185
01:01:01.040 --> 01:01:18.400
short-term rental for a period of 30 days. No advertising for rentals. Uh the fines are to be paid by July 31st of 2026 or direct the village to um proceed

186
01:01:18.400 --> 01:01:34.559
with moving forward with um I'll second. >> All in favor? >> I. >> Any opposed? Motion passes 4 Z. I want to thank everyone who did take time to come out tonight. Thank you very much.

187
01:01:34.559 --> 01:01:54.359
>> Thank you guys. So there is an addition that we had to add to this case um to this property and it's two cases C26-2 um

188
01:01:54.640 --> 01:02:11.520
296 and the other case number is 26-0299. These are new cases that we recently issued. After this incident, um the manager was injected with complaints, a lot of complaints from the neighborhood.

189
01:02:11.520 --> 01:02:27.760
Some of the people that complained have not showed up here. As you heard from the officer, um one of the officers in that one night, he was called out three or four times. With every call, um there's expense for the village. So I

190
01:02:27.760 --> 01:02:42.160
included a call log in one of the additions um just to give um the board an idea how many times police has had to go out there and also to add that with every call the police gets they have to report to code and then code has to go

191
01:02:42.160 --> 01:02:59.760
out and do one or two inspections. So, that's a lot of expense on the city. And the manager looked at that and uh looked at the history of the property and everything that's been going on with traffic and and the safety issues. And the manager decided as the administrator

192
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:16.079
of of uh the short-term rental license to give these neighbors a break. And and um he he requested to suspend this license for another year for the coming fiscal year. What we already did tonight, we'll suspend it for 30 >> for 30 days.

193
01:03:16.079 --> 01:03:31.119
>> Day. >> Correct. >> Then instead of it being allowed to renew on October 1, it will be suspended. >> The manager is asking that we suspend it for a year. >> Now in this packet, I see the violation

194
01:03:31.119 --> 01:03:48.960
um 0299. Do we not need to hear that? >> So in Yes, we can. I can talk about 299 because I made a recommendation as staff myself um going through this meeting with my higherups and uh talking to the management. I called and spoke to

195
01:03:48.960 --> 01:04:03.760
someone in management and I asked them that there is so much going on with this property and I asked them to kind of halt. Let's wait and see what happens. Let's stop um the the renting out the property for now and let's resolve these issues. But however, they continued

196
01:04:03.760 --> 01:04:19.920
advertising. They continued renting. I had been out there myself several times and met with their tenants. So on um I believe uh July 6, I received an email from one of their tenants. >> I was going to ask you how you got >> No, one of the ten from the short-term

197
01:04:19.920 --> 01:04:36.400
rental who rented the place emailed me complaining about this the state of the property. Um the >> one of the renters, >> it was one of the renters. Yes. Uh the property has been infested with uh rats. gross.

198
01:04:36.400 --> 01:04:51.359
And she sent pictures of what they woke up to in the morning on the first day that they rented the property. They had to check out. There was rat um droppings on their plates. There was rat droppings everywhere. And you can see from the

199
01:04:51.359 --> 01:05:07.839
pictures that she sent, the manager sent me out there right away. He said, "You need to go to this property and I need you to get inside and and see what's going on." When I arrived at the property, there was a gentleman checking in. So, he let me in and I did see droppings

200
01:05:07.839 --> 01:05:23.760
under the sink. It was smaller ones than what uh the the other person was a the pictures she was uh she put into the evidence and um >> So, did you take pictures? >> I did take pictures and they should be there. >> Okay. So, some of these pictures are yours. Some of >> you personally observe

201
01:05:23.760 --> 01:05:38.160
>> personally >> with the rat droppings and things >> and I saw droppings at the pool side and like the neighbor that is on the west side is I had to actually inform them to do pest control because they're right there and if there's droppings at the

202
01:05:38.160 --> 01:05:53.520
pool side they're going to get infestation in on their property. So considering that this is a a a real health hazard not not just for the people they're renting to but to their neighbors as well. We as staff are also recommending that this license is not

203
01:05:53.520 --> 01:06:12.559
renewed for the next year. >> Hold on a second. So So is that another agenda item that we're looking at? Is that >> it was an addition? >> That packet. That's the addition. Okay. Okay. Well, no, because I think I didn't download it to the one drive.

204
01:06:12.559 --> 01:06:28.640
So So it's So can I just see the file? >> So there's not only the safety issue with the vehicles. Now we have this health issue, safety issue that if somebody got sick with all this stuff we have going on in the country now and these are transient uh tenants. They're

205
01:06:28.640 --> 01:06:44.160
coming from different states um they are moving back to it and they they'll take something with them and there's huge liability for the village because now this has been reported to us. We have to take action. >> So you want this to be violated for for 30 days if uh

206
01:06:44.160 --> 01:07:00.079
>> the 30-day suspension was for the second offense. That's >> right. But that that clock is going to end before October 1st. >> Correct. >> So they'll be able to rent for several weeks and then >> several weeks. I would say they don't they you know they focus on getting this

207
01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:16.559
place cleaned up but they can if they want to if they do clean up the the place you know in the fiscal year coming up the manager is >> so procedurally I'm just trying to understand this. Okay. Because what you're trying to, you know, what it

208
01:07:16.559 --> 01:07:33.119
seems like is being requested is that we uh prospectively assume that they're going to renew and that we want to uh prospectively say that we want to uh not allow you to do

209
01:07:33.119 --> 01:07:50.079
so. Is there anything in the in the short-term rental policies that indicate that this is a you know where in there does it allow you or allow us as a village to do that when the violation that I see is 19.15

210
01:07:50.079 --> 01:08:07.599
which is license required. So license has not been requested is not even time for it. So that's what I want I need to understand >> right if you read the whole ordinance there are clauses in the ordinance that gives the manager or their designate the right to issue or cancel or refuse to

211
01:08:07.599 --> 01:08:23.120
give a license based on violating parts of this ordinance. Now while some of these are property maintenance violations in the ordinance is incorporated that they have a responsibility to take care of the property and take care of the you know

212
01:08:23.120 --> 01:08:38.319
property in such a way that it doesn't um compromise the health the safety and welfare of the village and the public. So what I want to understand is that and I understand the authority that you're saying that the village manager has but

213
01:08:38.319 --> 01:08:54.799
and and incite me to where that is where it says that the village manager can prospectively take away somebody's right before it has even ripened to the point to that point because if it's not there then it would appear to me that the appropriate way to

214
01:08:54.799 --> 01:09:11.440
approach this is that the person uh file for their renewal and then get denied at that point where the village manager is basing it on his rights and his power and his responsibility based upon the ordinance and then there's whatever

215
01:09:11.440 --> 01:09:27.199
process for that homeowner to try to appeal or whatever I don't think that this is >> that makes a lot of sense >> right for us >> so this happened progressively so when we talked about suspending the 30-day license when this violation happened and we had a meeting with the manager the

216
01:09:27.199 --> 01:09:41.040
manager suggested the one-year suspension now when we looked at the case we realized ized. This license is about to expire in two months. So, it wasn't going to make any sense for him to suspend this license for a year. My recommendation is this license is coming

217
01:09:41.040 --> 01:09:59.760
up for renewal and we may deny. I think the confusion in because we're seeing renting without a license. Well, they're not yet without the law. then you corrected it. And one of the things that appears to buttress

218
01:09:59.760 --> 01:10:15.920
or the ability for the manager to do this is and I'll try to read quickly. Notwithstanding anything otherwise provided herein by this is chapter 19.15. Notwithstanding anything otherwise provided herein, violations of this chapter also be subject to all the

219
01:10:15.920 --> 01:10:32.239
enforcement methods and penalties that may be imposed for the violation of ordinances of the villages provided in the village's land development code. Nothing herein shall prevent the village from seeking all other available remedies which may include but not be limited to injunction relief, abatement

220
01:10:32.239 --> 01:10:49.199
of public nuisance, leans, fines, etc. So it would appear when you have this level and again I the confusion started with the renting without a license which did not happen yet the village can according to the way that reads.

221
01:10:49.199 --> 01:11:05.120
>> Well I know D wants to say something but I just want to just add I appreciate what you read but I didn't hear anything in there that says that we have the right as a village to prospectively deny somebody's opportunity to apply for a license. And it seems to me that the

222
01:11:05.120 --> 01:11:22.760
village manager has that uh that that power to do it upon the the time when that when that ripens. Maybe they don't, right? So, how can we take away something that you had even asked for? You know, that's that's putting the card before the horse. But anyway,

223
01:11:23.040 --> 01:11:42.800
>> as a board, then we requested the village, which would mean for a year. >> You can >> then um in July of August of 2027, they could then apply for two months and

224
01:11:42.800 --> 01:11:59.440
>> then we can deny it then too if >> if if things hadn't changed, >> right? Not yet. >> But procedurally, procedurally, our ability to do that, I think, just expired when we just ruled and put that in the books as it relates to that last

225
01:11:59.440 --> 01:12:15.760
violation. And that was a decision that the village made with respect to how it wanted to proceed and what it wanted to ask the board for the relief that uh that it requested and which it was granted. So, I think that we're left with they have a violation for 30 days

226
01:12:15.760 --> 01:12:29.520
and then the manager's got a decision to make on October 1st. I think any I think to deny somebody's right before they even exercise that right is a viol is is wrong on a lot of levels. And uh you

227
01:12:29.520 --> 01:12:46.880
know and and that the homeowner, however um responsible that they are for this violation that we've just adjudicated them on. And I think we adjudicated with exactly what you requested and the village requested uh that um that they

228
01:12:46.880 --> 01:13:04.480
still have a right to uh to apply and at that time when the village manager wants to exercise his responsibilities then then he should and then there's a process for you know for for for dealing with that denial at that you know in that venue but this is not the

229
01:13:04.480 --> 01:13:27.760
appropriate forum to do this. >> Yeah and I see what you're talking about Michael. It's under um yeah on page 10 of section C of 19 216. Yeah. And under D is revocation license

230
01:13:27.760 --> 01:13:43.800
which is all spelled out suspension of the license, revocation of the license. You know those are all things that are in CO8 if to use a legal term. it has not yet ripened. It's not here yet and it's really not our responsibility.

231
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:58.800
>> I understand that and I think the manager does understand the powers that he has. However, um a a case like this, it it's always better to bring it to the public so the public understands what staff is doing. >> Exactly.

232
01:13:58.800 --> 01:14:19.320
>> Oh yeah. What if it's brought back to us in September? We know by then whether or not they're upon. We know how things are going. We can make our suggestions,

233
01:14:19.360 --> 01:14:36.320
but he has not applied. when he applies. There's a whole section here that Dale just pointed out giving the manager the ability to suspend a license, revoke a license, deny a license, and at that point is that's who needs to make that decision, not us prospectively. So

234
01:14:36.320 --> 01:14:59.920
whether it's September or whatever, it doesn't matter. We don't have to weigh in one way or the other, >> right? This is just not the appropriate forum. The manager's got to do what, you know, he believes the right thing to do is, but it doesn't it it's not something that we need to be doing because we don't have the authority to

235
01:14:59.920 --> 01:15:18.320
prospectively deny somebody's right. >> Understood. >> I see your point. Well made. Thank you. >> We still have to deal with the uh notice of violation 0299. Is that the one with the health?

236
01:15:18.320 --> 01:15:35.600
>> Yes, ma'am. >> That's where it's part of what? >> It's part of the addition. So, if you would like this number, >> what I mean that that's the new agenda

237
01:15:35.600 --> 01:15:54.760
item that which I have is 5.1. Is it under 5.1? >> We put both under 5.9. If you want to hear them separately, that's >> But there's a violation. I I only see the violation for the license suspended required, which we just dealt with. Is there another violation that you named?

238
01:15:55.199 --> 01:16:13.239
>> What we really didn't have because the way this was phrased was without a a license. We don't have that. We would have to essentially dismiss. Yeah. Right. >> Okay. So, let's back up.

239
01:16:15.040 --> 01:16:35.920
>> No. Five. 5 5.1. Are you going to make a motion on what we just talked about, right? >> 96. We effectively have to dismiss because there was no renting without >> Do you want me to do it? Okay. Is that this one right here?

240
01:16:35.920 --> 01:16:53.920
>> Yeah. All right. So, I'd like to make a motion on C26-0296. Based upon the facts and the discussion that we had tonight, I'd make a motion to dismiss uh the violation of license required because it has not yet occurred.

241
01:16:53.920 --> 01:17:20.880
>> I'll second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes. Now, honestly, on 0299 because it was not on the agenda, I'm I

242
01:17:20.880 --> 01:17:38.400
would like to pay it when it properly advertised. >> That's a good idea. >> It added it early that would have covered it, but by not additions and it's not on the agenda, bring it back, please. But my motion

243
01:17:38.400 --> 01:18:12.960
would be on C26-0299 to table it and bring it back on August meeting when it can be properly agendaized. >> I'll second. >> I motion passes. Go right ahead. >> A judge once told me that when I kept

244
01:18:12.960 --> 01:18:32.880
arguing after he ruled in my favor that I was going to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. If you think that you got to say something, say something. But we've already ruled. I do understand point but I still want to point out um that we have had pest

245
01:18:32.880 --> 01:18:48.719
control in that house for the past three years. I can send you >> I know but I just want to specifically for the officer because I even sent a letter to your email um Joeid >> saw the letter. >> Yeah, exactly. This is a house. I mean,

246
01:18:48.719 --> 01:19:05.440
we we all know that you can even if you have pest control, even whatever you have, a crack can open in a house and you might have mouses coming like even if you have the same as a roach, the same as everything, you may have the best in place and it's going to happen.

247
01:19:05.440 --> 01:19:21.120
>> As a property manager, if I were you, I would I would call them up and say that you're getting uh you're getting jammed up by the Village Bisang Park and show them the photographs and maybe get your money back or get a you know, an extra service. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, certainly. I I even switch companies and everything. I just

248
01:19:21.120 --> 01:19:35.600
want to point out that we are take, you know, we took the steps to fix that. It was a one-time happening. We took the the steps and we had pest control before and after and we changed companies >> running a public facilities actually. >> I understand.

249
01:19:35.600 --> 01:19:52.560
>> So, the standards have to be followed a lot more carefully. >> Indeed. >> And also there's a lot there are a lot of traps in the house. So you are aware that even though you're doing pest control, for you to have that many traps in that house, you know, you have rats in there. So I it's not acceptable to me

250
01:19:52.560 --> 01:20:24.719
and the case is not being heard now. I'll leave that for when we bring the case. >> You know, not snatch victory. The next case is under section 8 of the

251
01:20:24.719 --> 01:20:43.760
agenda for fine reduction and it's 8.1 for the address 11403 Northeast 8th Avenue. is for case number CE25-0929 Lavanta LLC in care of the registered agent Ernan Adenir.

252
01:20:43.760 --> 01:20:58.800
They're here for a fine reduction but found to be in violation of section 16.15.2 landlord registration. Uh they have since uh paid uh for the landlord they have obtained um a registration their

253
01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:15.440
registration. They paid um some abatement fines that were assessed on the property. They have paid the fines that were assessed from the order of enforcement, but they have an outstanding uh fine of $3,000 that run over a period of time. Um they are

254
01:21:15.440 --> 01:21:32.480
suggesting and they're offering $500 and we are recommending the same amount. >> I I didn't see their request in there, but it sounds like that nobody's disagreeing. said >> I I don't see their I don't see their document in here where they said that they

255
01:21:32.480 --> 01:21:51.040
>> Oh, okay. Here I see it. Oh, it's just nice and typed up. These guys are >> It was so easy. I was >> very nice. >> Very good. >> We recommend $500 as well

256
01:21:51.040 --> 01:22:14.400
>> to cover administrative cost. >> Yes. >> Because they paid everything else. Correct. >> Landlord registration. Come on. That's an easy one. >> I do. >> I keep screaming in the appropriate. So,

257
01:22:14.400 --> 01:22:31.760
>> Congratulations. >> Hang on. We didn't file the lean. Oh, okay. >> You did. >> Okay. It's fine. $30 in filing fees. >> My concern being that the notice of

258
01:22:31.760 --> 01:22:49.280
violation was um issued in November. The uh the landlord permit wasn't paid until after the lean was >> right filing for the expense like what 40 bucks or is it is it more than that? >> This was $21 around $21.

259
01:22:49.280 --> 01:23:05.920
>> Oh $21. But did you consider that when you were putting together your 500? Well, the 500 because it's 250 250 usually for admin fees and the valley fine. So, we're okay with the 500. >> Good question.

260
01:23:05.920 --> 01:23:31.199
>> Thank you so much. Appreciate it. >> I'll second. >> Thank you so much. pay by July the 31st for the um remains. >> Thank you so much. Have a good night.

Well, no, I'm just wondering because I'm looking in I'm looking at his file and there are there are things in here which, you know, just like the police reports, you know, you read them, but there's nothing to really back it up. Uh, you know, if there was a family representative or somebody here

that says, hey, you know, so and so has got these issues and, you know, there'd be something to to look at and and as compelling as it is, it's it's not sworn testimony. And that's the same problem that I have with, you know, we talked about before. So

has been years in in the making. >> So, but some some of the driveways were not as bad. So, some of them have deteriorated over the years and this is why we issue violations now. >> Okay. >> I have no problem giving you more chance

306
01:36:59.199 --> 01:37:20.400
because the daily fines are kicking in anyway. >> Um before we do the lean, I mean >> Amy, I love it. I love it. Make your motion. I'm going to second it. Okay. In C2

01:58:33.040 --> 01:58:51.360

Vice Chair BLE and I had in the case of Judy tonight. >> Good. Okay. I'll make a motion to approve the June minutes with those two correct. Um this one one not really a discussion

377
02:00:08.239 --> 02:00:25.440
point but on this short-term rental notices uh I mean uh permit or license do you does the village go out and inspect the property at the time >> and do we note the number because I

378
02:00:25.440 --> 02:00:40.960
believe as I read it the number bedrooms and are can we limit the amount of overnight guests per there? So, if they're two bedrooms, I can understand there might be a pull out couch. To me, that would be about six people, maximum eight.

379
02:00:40.960 --> 02:00:57.520
>> But what I'll do, >> this this property, I believe, got some permits to adjust the inside of the house. And there's a part of the house that has been converted to, >> but I I'll have to go back system and

380
02:00:57.520 --> 02:01:13.520
confirm that the permits went through and all of that >> because our inspection we have seen to extra bit. >> Okay. No, I was just wondering for any property and um >> Oh, yeah. We do we do check the number of and we have it

381
02:01:13.520 --> 02:01:29.920
>> 14 is a lot I think even with four bedrooms. >> What they've done in one of the bedrooms is they have bunk beds. So they have like one room, four bunk beds and then four bunk beds and garage is also converted to a bedroom and that's something I'll check to make sure they

382
02:01:29.920 --> 02:01:39.199
get a motion to Second.
